Adding usera with Yast

If I create a user with Yast using ldap than at some later point
delete that users ( also using Yast ) I cannot recreate a user of the
same name until I have rebooted the machine, which seems a
bit excessive ! Closing and reopening Yast doesn't work, it still
thinks the users exists. Even though it doesn't appear in the
Yast and if you look in the ldap browser it is gone. Is there something
else that need restarting ( other than the whole box )

You may be very right on this subject, but really, who is adding, then Deleting, then adding back in the same user name on any sort regular basis? If this is a server and you just made a mistake, then it could be an issue, but I don't think this is all of that common of a problem to run in to for most openSUSE users.
